Joint Replacement

Replace Your Joint, Restore Your Life.

As we age, the cartilage — or tissue in our joints that acts as a cushion between bone surfaces — grows brittle and begins to wear away. This loss of cartilage causes inflammation, pain and stiffness in our joints. Moderate degrees of wear cause occasional or mild pain, which can be managed with treatments ranging from over-the-counter or prescription medication to exercise, weight loss and physical therapy. However, when cartilage loss and the resulting pain reach a point where day-to-day life becomes difficult, joint replacement surgery may be the best option for you.
